Hard Days Night
, Beatles-themed hotel.

The Beatles also lived and worked in London.
Abbey Road Studios
is where they recorded many of their songs, including
All You Need Is Love
and
Love Me Do
. The famous pelican crossing where the group posed for the cover of
Abbey Road
is just up the road.

3 Savile Row, just off Regent's Street, is the venue of the last ever Beatles concert, held on the rooftop of Apple Records, in January 1969. Savile Row is now considered to be the major centre of traditional tailoring for men in the UK. Fans will also want to eat at the
Hard Rock Café
where you can see John Lennon's original handwritten lyrics to
Imagine
and
Instant Karma
and the glasses and jacket which he wore during a Beatles concert in New York.
